I didn't respond to defend fandom, I don't really know anything about SPN fandom and I don't care that much (though I can feel something for them for at least bothering to wank about gender issues - I'm looking at you, Heroes fandom). But when I read about this development, I did get a very headtilty-"well, really?" reaction, and Viv seemed to be asking why someone would feel that way. Honestly, it didn't seem like something I was being overanlytical about, that was just a first reaction that could even be based off a wrong impression.
